The Unreleased Profile project is intended as a way to allow players access to heroes and warriors in addition to those written by the GW team. This will include profiles for characters that may have been overlooked or not reached by the GW rule writing team or those that accidentally fell by the wayside when the rules were updated (eg Faramir, Captain of Ithilien).The Golden Rule:All Unreleased Profiles must be equivalent or slightly lower in power, and equal or slightly more expensive in points, than an existing official GW profile.

This simple idea is the Golden Rule behind this entire project. The premise is that it makes it far easier for gaming event planners and tournament organisers to approve supplemental rules and profiles that are designed to err on the side of caution when it comes to their power levels.

"The Unreleased Profiles" were used at The Last March of the West tournament.

Models used included Percy and Bain (Laketown), Lurtz Raid Leader of Isengard and Queen Beruthiel.Feedback was positive both from players and opponents. Lurtz was the one most enthusiastically received.

The Organiser of 'The Beer-End Tournament' told me today they will be allowing the profiles at that event in late December
